2022 - 2023 PTA Reflections Program
Due Tomorrow - Friday, November 11, 2022
Reflections has been a staple arts program in many schools for over 50 years. Through the efforts of our Local PTAs, millions of students have found a creative outlet in the areas of dance choreography, film production, literature, music composition, photography, and visual arts.

With positive recognition as the focus of this program, rather than competition, students of all ages and abilities can experience the benefits of creative expression and help in finding their own voice in telling their unique story.

Reflections has grown to be one of the largest nationwide programs of its kind, with more than 200,000 students participating annually.
